Consultation
Every project starts with a consultation. A brief meeting to talk about general site features, intended audience, marketplace competition, project stakeholders, and project timeline.
After completing the meeting I send a document for my client to review and to include any missing required information that was not provided during the initial call.
Once I receive all the information needed (for the initial quote), I am then able to generate a three tiered quote. This is based on the MVP, a second version with added features, and a third version with all features including any wishlist add-ons.
Once the client chooses which version they would like to have, we sign a contract and I request a list of sample websites that they like which will give me a starting point for their custom design.
